The Northwest Territories French Federation

The Northwest Territories French Federation (FFT) is the mouthpiece of the French-speaking community of the Northwest Territories. Its mission is to promote, encourage and stand up for the cultural, political, economic, social and community life of the native and immigrant French-Canadian citizens.

Since 1978, a team of militant and voluntary workers does the utmost to bring together and intervene on behalf of the flourishing development of the French-speaking community. It is supported by a permanent staff which incidentally edits the weekly newspaper «L’Aquilon».

In fact, the FFT federates twelve associated members very much involved in the day to day life of the Francophones and francophiles of the NWT. It also leads and runs three committees: health, youth and literacy.

Dedicated partner for the prosperity of the NWT, the FFT is an important centre of communication, a memory and a watchdog.
